This is going to be a quick guide nothing to major.

Now for android users, we have "developer mode" and developer options.

Many of you know what is in there and what can be done inside those simple settings, now you may be thinking what does this have to do with the topic?

Simple animations and max tasks.

Inside of developer options you have animation scales, or you should at least. They are set for a nice transition but transitions are screen resistant, hence why if you're like me you notice your screen draining battery, that partially has to do with brightness aswell.

But set them to no animation, or the lowest possible if you still want a tiny animation. It will lower the usage.

Now as i said there is another setting and your max tasks, or background task limit, set it low so it drops all heavy inactive usages,




For those of you thinking this doesn't necessarily work it does.

Example on my Turbo Two the average battery was around 16 hours on fair usage, which IS not that bad. But after this i was pushing roughly 20 hours on average with the same exact processes and everything as the previous day.

I have been doing this test for a while now about four weeks. Just to prove it, and it averaged a at least 15% battery life increase on decent loads, and on low loads nearly 30-40% increase on the full life.

I just did this. I haven't noticed any major difference so far but it should help in the long term

Like I said it depends on your workload and what you do.

In example heavy mobile gaming, very little subtle difference.

Music, you will notice a little bit, it not noticeable then hopnoff data :p

I should have probably.mentioned this is mainly a wifi/light data usage trick.

If you're just using for general usage talk/text/basics you should notice the difference.
